Watch an overview of the platform:

Take a quick tour of the key features:

Upload and manage contacts

At the heart of your marketing automation is your Contact database. Whether your Contacts currently reside in
your CRM, or some homegrown system, or even in Excel, your first step towards improved marketing
effectiveness is to upload your prospects and customers into your powerful Contact Repository. Upload from a CSV,
or pull directly from your CRM. As required, create an unlimited number of Custom Fields, and configure
Deduplication Rules to maintain the integrity of your data.

As your marketing Programs and Campaigns unfold, your Contacts' behavior will be stored and made available to you
as a means of refining your ongoing communication. That means your marketing will get smarter as you go along and
your results will improve.

Plan your multi-touch, multi-channel campaigns

The Studio provides you with the ability to architect a variety of Campaign workflows, whether they be simple
outbound Email campaigns, or something highly sophisticated.

First, you’ll plan your Programs and Campaigns using an intuitive drag-and-drop Canvas, enabling
you to create a
visual representation of your marketing workflow. Start from scratch with a blank canvas, or get a quick start by
using a Campaign Template.

Next, you’ll design your Programs and Campaigns in collaboration with other Users, and manage
Roles-based Permissions to control viewing and editing privileges. Using the Campaign Canvas,
you’ll configure all aspects of the multi-channel campaign, including defining your Target Audience segmentation
criteria, as well as each of the involved media.

Configure your media touches

As you configure your media, you’ll notice that they’re all managed through similar interfaces, which means that
once you learn how to use one form of media, learning others is a snap. In addition, all media provide you the
ability to use full personalization, allowing highly targeted and personalized communications. As you work on your
media, you’ll be able to store and manage your Digital Assets (like HTML, images, and more), for easy reference
within any Campaign Element.

You’ll create your Campaigns using:

Email. Send scheduled outbound HTML & text
emails

SMS. Send scheduled SMS text messages from
a shared shortcode

Social Media (Twitter). Send scheduled
Tweets or fully personalized Direct Messages to a group of Followers

Launch! (And don’t forget to turn on the autopilot …)

Triggers. Monitor a variety of events to
trigger any number of Outbound Media or follow-up activities.

Goals. Set, track, and act on conversion
points, for use in Reports and other performance measurement.

Scoring. Add or subtract Contact scores based
on activities (Events) performed by Contacts within your marketing Program.

You’ll use these marketing automation features to enable your Programs and Campaigns to keep working for you,
even while you’re asleep! If at any time you want to check up on what’s going on, you can use your Program
Calendar to keep track of all media activities - just click Publish, sit back, and let MindFire Studio do the work
for you.

Measure and improve marketing performance

Keep your finger on the pulse of your Programs' performance by measuring all aspects of your campaigns. View
standard reports for all multi-channel elements, including Email, SMS, Direct Mail, Twitter, and Microsites.
Drill-down to details showing Contact Activity history across all marketing Programs, Campaigns, and Elements.

Use Visual Analytics to slice-and-dice campaign performance, uncovering patterns that will make you look like a
genius. Or better yet, share the reports with your clients, simply by clicking a button and sending an email.

Set your developers free

If you’re lucky enough to know a developer or two, or if you’re one yourself, you’ll soon become friends with the
Platform’s RESTful APIs. You can create, manage, and report campaign activity, as well as methods that give you
the ability to create your own Extension Modules, yielding flexibility to customize the Platform’s behavior.

You’ll also meet the Marketing Application Markup Language (MAML). MAML is a special form of
Extensible Markup Language (XML), which you can describe each aspect of a marketing workflow, including media like email, SMS, and
landing pages, as well as the content and personalization required by each Element. MAML is fed to the Marketing
Engine for Program execution.

Think of it as a smart, self-described document that holds not only the marketing content, but also instructions
for how campaign respondents interact with each Element. This provides greater automation, speed, cost efficiency,
and ease of use. MAML-enabled systems can interface with other systems such as print workflow management, CRM
software, and web-to-print.
